My grandmother, who passed away a few months back at the age of 92, told us of her experience with ball lightning as a young girl. How it came in a window and drifted around the room a bit then out the open door. Now grandma could stretch things some, but it sounded interesting and fascinated me as a youngster. But now I wonder if it is like our Bigfoot, more myth than monster.

Any thoughts,
Alan
 
I may have seen it one day in my chicken house-- either that or it was normal lightning running the feeder wires on the ceiling as a ball.

It freaked me and the chickens out- we all ducked to the ground and stayed there for awhile. It left the air feeling weird.
